1. You’re familiar
The fact that you know them so well and you have absolutely no reason whatsoever to impress them, figure out the things they like or go ballistic with their $exual fantasies makes it easier to have uncomplicated $ex with your ex. These things hold true for both of you as being with a familiar body you know in and out is appealing even though you have it at the back of your mind that it won’t last. Having $ex with your ex will surely not make you get over them, neither will it help you start a fresh relationship.
2. You’re available
Well, it’s obvious that the ex is always available and if anyone is looking for a quick lay, the ex is the first point of call. The ideal thing to do is to prevent compromising situations such as spending private moments with them, having more drinks than you can take or answering their late night calls.
3. They want closure
A couple of times, you’d hear them say, “Just one last time, then I’ll be over you.” A Lot of girls in the ex category would probably have heard this excuse time and time again. The simple truth is that it is very rare for $ex to make you realise that the two of you aren’t meant to be together or make you feel like it is “really over” as $ex is bound to bring the two of you closer. It’s never really over if you’re having $ex, simply because…err, you’re having $ex.
